Holy Shit! Somebody else also voted for E.via in Pazz & Jop

Holy shit! Somebody else also voted for E.via in Pazz & Jop. Here's Todd Kristel's singles ballot:

1 DJ Zinc (ft. Ms. Dynamite), "Wile Out" (Zinc Music/Bingo Bass)
2 Vybz Kartel (ft. Popcaan & Gaza Slim), "Clarks" (Chrome)
3 California Swag District, "Teach Me How to Dougie" (Checkmate/Capitol)
4 M.I.A., "Born Free" (Interscope/N.E.E.T.)
5 E.Via, "Pikachu (Pick Up! U!)"
6 Far East Movement, "Like a G6" (Cherrytree/Interscope)
7 Big Boi (ft. Cutty), "Shutterbugg" (Def Jam)
8 Laura Bell Bundy, "Giddy on Up" (Mercury)
9 Sleigh Bells, "Rill Rill" (Mom + Pop/N.E.E.T.)
10 Intocable, "Estamos en Algo" (Sony Latin)

Watch on YouTube

Todd and I had no votes in common, but four of those singles were in my top twenty ("Pick Up! U!," "Born Free," "Estamos en Algo," and "Like A G6") and another three were in my top 95 ("Giddy On Up," "Teach Me How To Dougie," and "Wile Out"), so I wouldn't be surprised if Todd haunts the same Websites I do. (My own E.via votes were for EPs.)

I'm not making a big deal of my Pazz & Jop affinity list this year, since only three people were on it (you got on it by voting for three or more items that I voted for), and you already know them:

Three votes in common with me:
--Tom Ewing (The-Dream Love King, Various Artists Ayobaness!, Girl Unit "Wut")
--David Cooper Moore (Ke$ha Animal & Cannibal, Marina and the Diamonds The Family Jewels, Diddy - Dirty Money Last Train To Paris)

Four votes in common with me:
--Alex Macpherson (The-Dream Love King, Taylor Swift Speak Now, Diddy - Dirty Money Last Train To Paris, Girl Unit "Wut")

Number of people to vote for a single I voted for that wasn't "Wut":

1 (Bobby Reed: Little Big Town "Little White Church")

I knew Todd a little back in my Philly days, Frank, though I honestly can't remember how. Maybe via some mutual friend or acquaintance? Think he (maybe?) wrote for me just a couple times at the Voice, but I could be wrong (either because he wrote for me more than that, or not at all -- I've started forgetting more than you have.) As far as I know, he's not an ILX or Rolling Country regular, though I could be wrong about that, too -- if so, I have no idea what his screen name would be. Definitely haven't knowingly talked to him in years. (But if you're out there, Todd, hi! Hope you're well!)

Okay, I just Googled -- looks like he probably wrote for me about Laibach, Manu Dibango, Couch Flambeau, trucker-country oldster Red Simpson, a live Springsteen album (and maybe other things?) Unless he wrote them for somebody else around the mid '00s, and they just wound up later on the New Times/Voice website. (Honestly, I assigned and published so many pieces in 7 Voice years, it's hard to keep track.)

My "memory" here occurred the same way yours did, by Google, so perhaps he wrote those for one of the other Voice/New Times outfits. In any event, I like his taste.
